See you at Km 0 for 2014 Run United 2!
Are you joining 2014 Run United 2 tomorrow? I’ve signed up for 21k.
Tonight, I’ll be on my knees praying that the weather cooperates tomorrow. I’m hoping all 10,000 plus runners do the same so we have greater chances haha!
Run United 2 Course Map for 21k
Run United 2 Medal for 32k Finishers
Run United 2 21k and 32k Finishers’ Shirts
I’m looking forward to the new race start at Km 0 in Luneta Park. Traffic may be a bit more difficult, but I think it’s great that we experience new race starts with the opportunity to improve our races every year.
While I may not get that great looking medal for 32k finishers, I’m pretty excited about the 21k Finishers’ Shirt. Love the design!
See you at Run United 2 tomorrow, runners!
Newton Running Launches its 2014 Line
For 2014, Newton Running introduces several innovations that further improve on the natural running experience.
THE FIFTH LUG
The Gravity III and Motion III Mileage Trainers and Distance III and Distance S III Speed Trainers feature the next evolution of Newton’s unique Action/Reaction forefoot technology with the addition of a fifth lug. The dynamic lugs align with the foot’s five metatarsal bones, thereby delivering more cushioning, greater responsiveness and a broader and more stable base underfoot.
“The fifth lug provides more ‘pop’, or the dynamic platform that gives Newton Running shoes their unique feel and ride,” says Newton Running President Craig Heisner. “POP is also an acronym for ‘point of power,’ which is the forefoot landing zone involved with a balanced and efficient run gait.”
NEW E.M.B.
Newton is also evolving its product architecture on the Motion III and Distance S III by offering a new Extended Medial Bridge (E.M.B), designed to provide a broader platform for added stability. Combined with a lightweight, laser-perforated micro-suede overlay on the upper, these two models provide runners with additional support under the arch without over-controlling the foot’s natural motion.
The new Mileage and Speed Trainers also debut major design changes that appear in all new Newton Running shoes throughout 2014. The changes include welded instead of stitched overlays, 360-degree reflectivity and subtle two-tone designs on the metatarsal stretch panels. The Gravity III and Motion III maintain a 3 mm drop from heel to toe, and the Distance III and Distance S III still have a 2 mm drop. This near-level platform supports a more balanced, natural posture, which is an essential component to efficient running.

TBR on The Bro Show
I had a blast talking about running and TBR Dream Marathon at The Bro Show with TBRDM Alumni Mico Halili and Jason Webb a couple of weeks ago. It was also great to relive young love vicariously through the new Kiefer Ravena and Mika Reyes (#miefer) budding romance haha!
Watch my guesting on The Bro Show on this LINK.
